Hello! I hope everyone has a great Christmas and a very Happy New Year. Ours was good with the exception of me getting sick. I had bronchitis and a sinus infection. I have finally started to feel like myself again. It sure sucked to be sick over the holidays.

I didn't get a lot of stitching done, but was able to stitch up this beauty. The designs is from Hands on Design and can be found in this year's JCS ornament magazine. I used fabric and thread that I already had in my stash. I love reindeer, so this was a pleasure to stitch.

Has anyone made any New Year resolutions when it comes to stitching? I am going to try and stitch two Halloween and a Christmas small each month and the whatever might catch my attention. Maybe I can try and get some of the kits done that I have got from the various clubs I belong to. Guess we will see.

Hey Everything! I hope everyone had a great November and to he USA, Happy Thanksgiving.

For this month's small, I went with a freebie from The Primitive Hare. It was so much fun to stitch. I used a piece of fabric from my stash and the called for threads. I think I am going to finish it off as a pin keep for my basket.

Now I need to finish getting ready for Christmas. I have one more tree to get up and then the rest of the decorations. I am happy that I have at least finished Christmas shopping, though I still need to wrap everything.

Instead of rambling more, I need to go and get some more decorating done.

Hello All! Just a quick post with my October's Smalls Piece. My daughter choose Primitive Christmas Sleigh from Country Rustic Primitives for me to stitch. It was such a fun, quick stitch. I used a piece of scrap fabric from my stash and the called for DMC.

Now to decide if I want to continue stitching for Christmas or if I want to stitch a few things for Thanksgiving. Decisions, Decisions!

Hello all! It has been a crazy month. We are been in homeschool mode and have joined a co-op this year, which has been great. The kids have already made some new friends.

But with the start of the new school year, I don't get to stitch as much, but I was able to stitch up this quick, little stitch from Country Rustic Primitives - Jenny Hoffman called I'll Get You My Kitty. I used a piece of scrap fabric and DMC 310.

Hello out there! Boy, the summer is really flying by. We are getting ready to start our 3rd year of homeschooling, but not until after my gallbladder removal surgery and Liam's 11th birthday. It is so hard to believe that he will be 11 soon.

I didn't do much stitching last month, but did manage to stitch up Plum Street Samplers new free chart, Brew Ha. I used a piece of fabric and threads from my stash. It was such a fun stitch. Now I just need to get the espresso button pins for it and get it finished.

Last night I started a freeHalloween freebie from Notforgotten Farms. I am using a piece of fabric from Silkweavers Fabrics, it is a solo. Then am using DMC and WDW threads. When I am done stitching I will post the colors I used.
